Distributor Optical Disc
Hello!
Im using a Haltech ECM on my 1992 LT1 supercharged engine. I´ve to Change for exhaust laws from Batch fire to Sequential Injection.
I hope i will explain all correct ;-)
Haltech and also Motec means, that is not possible with the stock optical disc in the (MSD)Distributor. There is a High Resolution 360-Step Signal and a Low Resolution for Cylinder 1 and some wider Windows. They means, the Distributor most deliver the 360er Signal and only the cylinder 1 Signal without the wide Windows (so only the line should be on the disc without the wide Windows).
Do you have experience where i get such an optical disc?
Or do you changed to a 24-1 System?
Best regards Juergen

facts:
92-93 are batch fire with speed density
94-96 are sequential fire with maf sensor
92-96 all used optispark. the optical disk should be the same.
for example, i have converted my 93 over to a 95-96 gen 2 optispark. i am still batch fire and speed density.
this is my opinion:
24x conversions are a waste of money and time
either find an oem- quality optispark or install the weight lsx motor. (and use its computer).

Hello,
i read, that if you Change to 94-96 Distributor it´s also necessary to Change the Timing chase cover, isnt´t it?
Or do you think it is posible to put in the electonic components from the 95-96 in the 92-94 cover (MSD Distributor).

It would seem as though the sensible solution to your problem would be to program the computer to monitor the pulse width of the low-resolution sensor outputs, and to ignore any that it doesn't need to use. The optical disk on all of the Opti units will have more than one low-resolution window. You would need to fabricate a replacement from scratch if you want a disk that has only one low-res window.
Live well,
